Glad You Asked: Kaskade, Hops on the Hill and Jay Brannan

Dear GYA, I got in a huge fight with my girlfriend the other day at the bar. I guess it doesn't matter what it was about-- it just sucks because every time we fight like this, I do something really stupid that I feel horrible about the next day, like leaving my debit card at the bar.--- Well, since I have to leave the house to pick up my card, what's good tonight? - Mike Blazac, West Jordan

Mike, there's nothing like the shame and humiliation of returning to a bar the next day to get your card. I'm terribly sorry this happened to you. Next time, stay focused when arguing with your GF and always do a wallet-and-phone pat-down before you leave. Anyways, here's what's going down:

Electronic DJ and producer Kaskade will be performing at Park City Live tonight. This particular is show is somewhat of a homecoming for Kaskade, who attended BYU in 1989 and 1990. He also owned a record shop in Salt Lake City called Mechanized until 2000, before moving to San Francisco. The show starts at 9 p.m.

Every Tuesday, the Hops on the Hill Beer and Concert Series goes down at Stein Eriksen Lodge, Deer Valley. This week, the beer of choice will be from Unita Brewing, backed by some smooth tunes from Swagger. Tickets are $35 at the door. The show and tasting starts at 4:30 p.m.

Acoustic swooner Jay Brannan will be onstage at Kilby Court this evening. Brannan’s latest album, Rob Me Blind, was produced by Grammy award-winning producer David Kahne. The show is all ages and starts at 7 p.m.
